Books 2 and 3 in the A Kids' Year series are released today!

An English Year and A Scottish Year were so much fun to create and we're very excited about adding to this cache of books with a cultural focus. The books will be out in the UK in October, but there is a current run of books here in Australia, too. Be sure you snaffle your copy early, as stock is limited.

And be sure to watch this space for the next books in the series ... two more sensational places. I wonder where they'll be ...? Leave a comment below if you want to guess!

A Scottish Year

Meet Isla, Sophie, Dominik, James and Rashida — Scottish children
representing a multicultural blend of culture and race that typifies our
beautiful country. They will take you through a year in the life of
Scottish kids, from celebrations to traditions to events, to our
everyday way of life and the little things that make childhood so
memorable. They are our Scottish childhood.

A Scottish Year is a picture book bursting with national
pride. It is a snapshot of who we are as a nation, blending our
modern-day culture and lifestyle with past traditions and strong
heritage. Its pages feature meandering text, dates and gorgeous
illustrations, showcasing our five Scottish children at play, at school,
at home, and enjoying the sights and sites of Scotland — from our
heather-strewn Highlands to our historical cities, pristine outer
islands and charming rural towns.
